N$0EOI compilation service
A Tara Nawa service, supported by WebPortunitiesVisit Tara Nawa ↗
01 / MAKE THE MARKET VISIBLE
A need should trigger a plan
Not a scramble for contacts
A new building. A failed pump. A fleet repair. The first question is often the same: who has the capability to help?
Look beyond familiar suppliers
Give established businesses, SMEs and emerging local suppliers an opportunity to show what they can offer.
Prepare with better information
Understand available capabilities before refining a scope, seeking quotations or planning a formal procurement process.
THE OUTCOME
A supplier profile connected to the right products and services becomes useful market intelligence.
02 / FROM INTEREST TO INTELLIGENCE
One structured invitation
A more informed municipality
Tara Nawa compiles an expression of interest to gather supplier information. Suppliers connect their company profiles to the categories they can serve.
- 01
Define & compile
Agree the municipality’s needs, categories and information requirements. Tara Nawa compiles the EOI.
- 02
Approve & invite
The municipality approves the invitation and publishes it through the appropriate channels.
- 03
Profile & upload
Suppliers link their company profiles to relevant categories and upload all required company documents to WebPortunities.
- 04
Organise & review
Responses and mandatory supplier documents are available through the WebPortunities portal for municipal review and procurement planning.
- 05
Find & approach
When a need arises, use the relevant categories to identify suppliers to approach through the applicable process.
The municipality stays in control.It approves the EOI, reviews supplier information and retains all procurement decisions. The service works alongside its required procurement procedures.
03 / PUT IT TO WORK
“We need a
new building”
Start with the requirement. Follow the category links. Find relevant capabilities and supplier profiles.
A building project can involve more than a builder: engineering, electrical works, plumbing, security and professional support may all be relevant.
Illustrative workflow. The examples show category connections; they do not select or recommend actual suppliers.

05 / SEE THE DIRECTORY IN ACTION
Supplier information
Made easier to discover
Tara Nawa’s business directory already brings together company information, services, locations, brands and document indicators.
Actual directory screenshots captured on 19 October 2026. The public directory has its own category structure; the 14 municipal categories above form the proposed EOI classification.
A starting point for supplier discovery.A listing, ranking or document badge does not itself confirm municipal eligibility, current capacity or compliance.
06 / COMPANY DOCUMENTS & RENEWALS
Required company documents
One portal to manage them
Suppliers upload all the company documents required by the municipality to WebPortunities. Municipal officials access them through the portal, alongside the supplier’s company profile.
Gather the required documents
Suppliers upload their certificates, registration records and other requested documents directly to the portal, and update them when renewed or changed.
Leave local filing behind
The documents remain available through WebPortunities. The municipality does not need local filing cabinets or a separate system to store and manage these supplier documents.
Keep renewals in view
When documents are due to expire, WebPortunities issues renewal notices to suppliers so they can take remedial action and upload renewed documents.
EXAMPLES OF REQUIRED COMPANY DOCUMENTS
The evidence behind a supplier profile
The municipality specifies the documents relevant to the supplier and the intended business relationship. Examples include:
- 01Bank Details
- 02BEE, BBBEE or TESEF Certificate (or similar)
- 03Company Registration Certificate
- 04Good Standing Tax Certificate
- 05Good Standing With Social Security Commission Certificate
- 06OEM Confirmation Letter
- 07Shareholders Identity documents
- 08VAT Registration Certificate
This is an example list. Suppliers can upload all documents required by the municipality, including additional document types where applicable.
DOCUMENT EXPIRY & RENEWAL NOTICES
A reminder before a document expires
WebPortunities also takes care of issuing renewal notices. Suppliers are notified when their documents are due to expire, giving them the opportunity to obtain updated documents and keep their portal records current.
- 01Document is due to expire
A certificate or other time-limited document approaches its expiry date.
- 02Supplier receives a renewal notice
WebPortunities notifies the supplier that action is needed.
- 03Supplier takes remedial action
The supplier renews or replaces the document and uploads the updated version to the portal.
Supplier documents in the portal, without local filing cabinetsAccess the required documents through WebPortunities, with renewal notices helping suppliers keep them up to date.
The municipality confirms its required documents and reviews their completeness, validity and currency before doing business with a supplier. Its own procurement-record retention obligations still apply.
07 / DISCOVER THE MARKET PROTECT THE PROCESS
Market intelligence that
supports your procurement process
This service supports market engagement, supplier intelligence and access to mandatory documents. It does not replace, bypass or interfere with the procurement procedures that municipalities and local government institutions must follow.
Your required procurement procedures remain in place.The municipality retains authority over approvals, supplier verification, quotation requests, tenders, evaluation and contract awards.
BUILD THE EVIDENCE BASE
A controlled municipal process
- Name the municipality as the issuing public entity.
- Obtain approval from the authorised municipal structures.
- Disclose objective requirements and give suppliers equal information and access.
- Retain responses, documents and review records for accountability.
KEEP THE BOUNDARIES CLEAR
Participation is not an award
- Submitting an EOI does not guarantee appointment or preference.
- Category registration does not establish that a supplier is prequalified.
- Future quotations and tenders follow the applicable procurement method and requirements.
- A formal statutory EOI or prequalification stage must follow all prescribed requirements.
